I have never truly committed to doing pts untimed. In the past, I have consistently checked the answers and redone the ones I knew were wrong, and this is hopefully why I have yet to become a 175+ scorer. Any one else get totally destroyed by game 3? I had at least 22 mins when I started and had 6 left when I finished it and still missed 2, and I bubbled the last answer to that section wrong b/c of short time. Will re-do this game until I own it. Oh... and screw RC.

It seems like alot of ppl have taken a brief break from TLS, and I have as well (because I have been without a PC for about a week, and I do not like to type on my phone).

I am doing the drill 1-38 and PT 39-71 as full-length PTs. My drilling stage is taking a long time, and that is fine. I try to review as thoroughly as possible, and I still have a long way to go.

Games is going well. Stil missing some but getting faster and have gotten way better and making inferences and still improving.

I feel like I have yet to find the sweet spot on RC, but I feel like I am getting close. I get most Main Point questions, and I am getting better at the specific line/other not-main-point questions. Although, sometimes I'll spend 10 minutes on a passage and go -4.

LR was going well until I got to Weaken questions. I usually get around 75-80% on my Cambridge packets, but on the Weaken packet I have only gotten around 60% (and this is all untimed). I am reviewing really hard and I was trending up on level 2 until I got to level 3, haha.

I am excited to take a full-length Prep Test once my drilling stage is over and get a number on how much I am improved. But I probably won't finish my drilling stage until at least April. I may push my test date back until September, which is totally fine with me.

Same here Lou. You and I seem to be in just about the EXACT same place and thought process.

So I just completed the LR bible and have started LG. For people who study 6-8 hours a day, what can you possibly be doing? Are you just doing PTs or are there additional problem sets out there that I just haven't found? I've heard to stay away from anything that isn't taken from the LSAT which really limits my options. Does anyone have a solid daily schedule they're following that includes some practice problems?

Good to hear my friend!

I was going to PM you this, but I think that someone other than me may actually benefit from hearing a response from you (or anyone else) on this.

Walt: What do you do when you are drilling and you get a bunch of a question type wrong (like is currently happening to me on Weaken questions)? Do you take them even slower, and like write out:Premises:Conclusion:Analysis of the gap:And then go through each answer choice and relate it to what you just did?

Or do you have another method for a question type that gives you a problem?

I mention the above example of what to do because I don't know how else to get better at these questions that are giving me fits. I want to gain the skills needed to understand these arguments but I am unsure how to go about that.
